In this video, I show you the step by step breakdown of removing my old wood floor and installing some brand new engineered oak flooring in its place. If you're looking for videos about how to install any new flooring in place of your carpets, whether that be hardwood flooring or laminate flooring, hopefully this video will give you a bit of inspiration to get started!

Quite a few people have been asking what the specific radiators were, so I've included links to both of them in the description. :)

If you're not subscribed and reading this, please kindly scroll back up and hit that big juicy subscribe button. I'm wanting to get a million subscribers and retire with 237 cats.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Cats reveal at 1 Million 😊

[@donnahersey9813]

Already subscribed but I hit the like button (because I always like your videos.) Not a “cat person,” more of a dog person, but love that caring, gentle way of yours, and making 237 cats happy sounds lovely.’

[@jankarel6454]

I'm trying to imagine what kind of house would hold 237 cats. That would be a whole video series all by itself.

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Please don't leave us,even if you have 358 cats.I won't recall their names,but will laugh as you try to herd them about. ;)

[@jaycorwin1625]

lol, good idea. I've just subscribed, and liked this, of course Good luck. I enjoy your narrations as much as the progress on your house.

[@lottie2525]

It's looking great, George. What an amazing transformation.

[@GaiaCarney]

It is a stylish space! I love the garden & view of the hills 💚

[@steve-handsomelady]

Me to my transgender son who has chosen the name George whilst he shows me his new penis:

[@cherriemater]

07:17 Leveling balloons. Leveling balloons? Leveling balloons! Wow ... those are amazing! I have never seen those before but I am going to remember them when we get our windows replaced.

[@lazygardens]

WOW ... I missed that bit. Those would be so good for door installs because you can step on the inflating bulb. ( Called "Air shims" or "inflatable pry bar" in the US. About $20.

[@cherriemater]

@@lazygardens Nice! Thanks! I'm in Michigan so it'll help to know for what to ask.🤩

[@merrimcarthur7198]

Your place is looking lovely. Also, I love the (mostly) single topic videos. Much easier to follow than strictly timeline oriented video. 💖

[@lunarkid.]

So beautiful! Sean Paul is a beast, getting everything done so quickly!

[@Patchy]

He certainly is! 😎

[@AndrewKNI]

Sean Paul & colleagues are fantastic workers. It was a joy to see them at work and they have truly transformed the kitchen. Love the green background colour. Beautiful 🙂

[@joannewolfe5688]

It's all looking smashing! Sorry you were ill, but you sound good now. Can't wait to see the fully finished space. I'm a little confused about the building, though; I was under the impression that you owned the entire building, and did not realize there was a downstairs with other occupants. Did I miss something? Could you explain a little more in your next vid?

[@biddydibdab9180]

Sean Paul is absolutely amazing. He works at a furious pace, never misses a trick and never cuts corners. He’s a dynamo.

[@Lobstrique]

i love the pace you chose for these videos ❤ and i love the colors of the space so much, the green wall with patio doors is amazing, it seems like an extension of the outside in the summer and i feel like it will give the much needed splash of green in winter

[@PokhrajRoy.]

7:59 Love a well designed bookshelf 📖

[@john_smith1471]

The recessed shelves are a good idea, keeps the floor area clear in a small living space and the wall nice and flat for furniture.

[@_Glenn_Meadows_]

Thank you for the updates! Love seeing the progress. I am curious about Sean Paul and the workers' lack of use of goggles and masks with the amount of dust and the sawing and cutting happening through this and previous videos.

[@Patchy]

Glad you're enjoying it! And tbh I don't have a good answer for that question... they seem to just not let it bother them. I always try to stick by the door myself though haha.

[@jmk1962]

They will regret it when they are older or develop lung cancer.

[@physicianskitchen]

@@Patchy as a doc i highly suggest gentlemen wear masks and other protective gear. Those particles, especially inhaled chronically, are dangerous. Also love your channel, it lowers my blood pressure 😀🐱

[@nicolad8822]

They are made in Scotland from girders? You can always tell a Scotsman but you can’t tell him much? They are genetically programmed to die of furred arteries at 65 so a few lung issues is no big deal?

[@christine6059]

The young feel indestructible.

[@jennymichelle81]

"DAVID..HOW OLD'S THE SINK" ??..Was my favourite part 😅😅

[@sandyonashoestring]

I’ve not only subscribed to your channel but I’ve bought your course! I have my own unfinished tiny home that I bought and I’m going to film it, thanks to your inspiration. I have two cats.

[@Patchy]

Aw thank you! Hope it helps you on your own KZbin journey. 😎

[@carolinegreenwell9086]

looking so stylish

[@AngelavengerL]

The oak is so lovely and the green at the end is so nice too. Really love seeing before and after and wow the after is just gorgeous!

[@lindah8838]

Sorry to hear you were feeling under the weather but glad you're feeling well now. Wow, looks really bright and lovely, especially compared to before! I'm sure Junior will be very pleased too once she's able to move in.

[@davedublin1]

Looking well George!! Glad you're feeling better!! Ah the old hearing going!! Starts happening around 30!! 😀 Love the shade of green at the patio doors btw

[@Patchy]

Cheers Dave! And aw no haha. I'm hoping I'll fend off that curse then. Glad you like the green as well. Think it blends in well with the grass/hill outside so I'm happy with it. :)

[@JJ_Magnificent]

Seeing the bookshelf come together was oddly satisfying. Beautiful, thank you for sharing! ❤

[@stellaolejar9007]

George your place is truly coming together just beautiful. Looking forward to seeing your next tutorial.

[@menagers]

He works so fast, what a legend ❤

[@diannehardwick950]

You’ve given it a bright, clean look. Very nice.

[@helenjohnson7583]

That green wall is so beautiful! Everything is beautiful!! Thanks for showing us!

[@amteo7107]

What a beautiful transformation. I like the colours you have chosen making the space look bigger and the built in bookcase is stunning.

[@janetmackinnon3411]

"David, how old's the sink?" --first laugh of the day. Thank you.

[@jj-if6it]

So glad you're putting in hardwood and not that horrible vinyl or manufactured wood everyone is using! Much better investment in the long run

[@missmollygoodgolly6088]

The place is so much brighter than it was before! The skylights and lighter color make a big difference!

[@peggyhemenger8983]

Really, it looks beautiful. The warm wood colors with the white, and I love that green accent wall! Even those radiators add a fresh contemporary look.

[@the14thmoonofuranus]

It's looking fabulous, those guys seem to really know what they're doing

[@50Street21]

Your tradesmen are testament to their phenomenal work. Well done, George, on your choice of renovations. Cheers! Darryl

[@DarkHorse-bp3xf]

As much as I love old interiors, this space really needed a shot of light and freshness. Good decision on the white radiators. As much as a fun colour would be, in such a small space it would visually break up the space. Well done!

[@maggirae1961]

Love it, sleek and modern but still with old building charm--carry on.

[@DF12]

Looking good George, been nice seeing it on SPs stories. Looking forward to seeing what comes next and I hope you feeling better! Darryn

[@Patchy]

Cheers Darryn! That’s really kind of you and much appreciated. Very pleased with how it’s all coming together. 🤠

[@janinafisher101]

The place is really looking lovely in this video! Seeing the before photos alongside these, it looks SO dark before you installed those skylights. Great idea. The floor and bookshelf are lovely. I can't wait to see what Junior thinks of the place. Sorry you were so ill, and glad to hear that you are on the mend. I hope there are no lasting symptoms.

[@shauncraigparkinson8165]

It looks so nice George, Love the green, white and oak together.

[@john_smith1471]

Green is a calming colour, looks good with the light oak floor and white walls.

[@haggielady]

Glad you're better. Love the look of the floor and green wall. Pat Junior for me.

[@Patchy]

Really pleased with it! And will do. :)

[@correyclockworth]

Admire your calm videos and happy to discovered you. Your renovation videos are inspiring and my two British Shorthairs (one complete ginger male and one complete grey female) fell in love with Junior when I watched the videos. Take care and hope to see more of your journey!

[@Patchy]

Cheers! Plenty more to come. 😸

[@jj-if6it]

I'm always impressed at what an incredible worker SP is. He's so quick and efficient

[@alsanova]

Starting to look like a home! Good choice on nice green wall and oak flooring 👍👌

[@Cueman222]

Looking great George. That Sean Paul is a hard worker.

[@coling7091]

FM. Sean Paul and crew are legends

[@ms_katia2267]

It’s coming along really nice, I didn’t know it was a flat not the whole house, but it will be great.

[@chrisfortin4251]

Looking really wonderful! Amazing transformation of an old space. Glad you’re feeling better. Cheers!

[@serenityflies1462]

Looking good George!! Glad you feel better, take care, love from Australia xx ☺☺💗💗💗

[@malinpehrsson635]

what a wonderfully nice and bright room it has become

[@melsyoutube]

can’t wait to see more

[@safaa9654]

The heaters look really cool!

[@annetteavery3349]

I enjoy the processes the guys are using, very professional, and very calming colours too 👌

[@jimadams6159]

Wow, it is looking so good. I have to say I really like your choices of colour and the wood finishes.

[@benaskey6769]

Superb makeover, great voice overs as always, more cat content please! keep em coming!

[@JamieE76]

It's really turning out beautiful, so light and airy! :)

[@elizabethshelby5613]

The new floors are lovely, but such a shame the old ones couldn’t have been re-used

[@afountainpenawakening]

love seeing before and after, it's just so satisfying lol!!! It's looking great and that green feature wall, is everything! Looking forward to next weeks vid. Cheers from Australia

[@SilverGoth]

It's always such a treat when I see you have produced a new video!

[@rebeccahelga32]

Your sense of humour just slays me😂❤

[@JaneDoeDoeDeeOhDoe]

It's looking wonderful, George. So good to hear your voice again. I'm glad you're feeling better. 🙂

[@mpfractal3138]

The place is looking fantastic. Such nice choices you have made on everything. I'm glad you are feeling better. Hi to Junior, and thanks for the update!

[@diamondperidot]

I love the green on the walls with the floor and other pops of wood trim.

[@jenn-k-h]

Sorry to hear you were sick! The place is looking so amazing 😀

[@sylvanaire]

It’s a funny thing, but when you first showed this room with the plaster board up, I imagine that wall with the French doors as being painted a light green and here you are painting it green, lol. It looks fabulous. Good work!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

I’m sorry to hear you were not well! Happy to hear you’re doing well 👏🏽

[@karchvs]

I have missed you. Glad you're feeling better!

[@LV12800]

Looking gorgeous. Love the green accent wall and everything else. Bright, airy, clean, and fresh. Well done! ❤

[@CarolineOceanaRyan999]

Fantastic as always, George! The house is really coming on! Lovely design choices.😊

[@IceSedale]

Ready for the next video already

[@mary-eleanor8126]

Love the piano music in the background. Your videos just really calm me down and take my mind off of things for a little bit, your voice is really comforting so thank you :)

[@msantello1]

Super nice George!

[@clionamm]

It's looking great! I'd love Sean Paul here for a week to do some stuff! His work looks so good. 🙂

[@catprotector2759]

Been waiting for your video George!

[@Patchy]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@bonniepwtf]

Looks so beautiful so far, very much my style. So light and airy & the green accent wall is perfect. Glad you're feeling better.

[@Patchy]

Glad you like it, Bonnie! And thank you. :)

[@TheJanaRina]

The green wall really adds a nice bright freshness :D The place looks gorgeous!

[@kalyanadhi782]

Looks so good. Love the green wall and the bookshelf 😍

[@user-lg7eb8qc3j]

looks fabulous! Hope you feel better!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

George, you don’t seem like the person who’d be inquisitive and knock at doors at random times. That’s me 😂

[@Patchy]

I never knock on his door tbf, just catch him in passing haha.

[@choochalah]

@@Patchy you mean like springing forth from a hedgerow or following them to the shop? 👀😉

[@cliveroulstone9366]

It’s looking lovely George 👍

[@pipmitchell7059]

Aaaarrrgh! Jean-Paul and his mate stirring up all that dust of who-knows-what, and even worse cutting up rock wool, WITHOUT MASKS! I could hardly bear to watch. The result is gorgeous though. Amazing transformation!

[@DavidMCheney]

Glad you are feeling better! Great job on the project!

[@rebeccabaradas7699]

Your house is beautiful! Thank you for sharing more construction content towards its full development! 👏👏👏👏

[@Tina_42]

I like topic based more than time based so I'm glad you are doing it topic based :)

[@7728abbott]

Great job, George!

[@Patchy]

I can't take credit, it's all Sean Paul! 😄

[@harmony3395]

Looking amazing George, so light and bright now, wonderful transformation

[@hitomihutzell]

Beautiful. I love it. I am happy you are feeling better. Take care.

[@millywood6801]

It looks great, love the book shelves. Excellent work lads.

[@fromSpringfield]

Hardwood is so nice. I'm sitting here looking at the acacia I put down 7 years ago. It is beautiful. Nice choice on your part.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

2:14 I like the fact that you’ve organised based on a category. Much better than a rambly retelling.

[@Patchy]

Glad to hear it!

[@janmccann8081]

It's great to see you back, and I'm glad you are feeling better now. I always look forward to your videos. Keep em coming along!

[@FrogeniusW.G.]

"David, how old is the sink?" 😂😂 Tbh. Carpenters are the sexiest people I know. 😬 The house /flat looks amazing so far! The green wall makes it even nicer/cozier. ❤

[@beckyp9700]

Sorry to hear you were not well for a while, you are better now. That is a great thing. I am sure you have mentioned this before, but I can not recall the answer. How old is the house? I am so excited to see the next installment of your renovation.

[@jonap5740]

It looks so good! That Sean Paul and crew work so hard. You were lucky to find them! He's to 237 cats, George. See you next time.

[@carlosmelendez394]

When you said you were 6 and a half feet tall that really threw me off with everything i know about body proportions and youtube videos. Some people like me did not grow up with the internet and are relatively new to observing body proportions in videos. And i was getting confident on my skills. But that certainly shook them somehow. Liluckily, then you gave us the correct body height. And i felt i got an important part of me back!😂 thank you.

[@Gretchen-vh9xt]

Your work crew is doing a great job.

[@callanrobison2674]

Love how this is turning out. Can’t wait to see it finished

[@matth4911]

I'm glad you're feeling better, and your place is looking great!

[@_negentropy_]

Wowza! Beautiful job! Also the ceiling height and sky lights make a huge difference.

[@jeremy1350]

Hi George and Junior, Sean Paul and Friends !! The miracle team of wonder workers strike again. And doesn't it look Beautiful, Expert, Fast, Installation. Like Buttah !!! Hope you are feeling better.

[@Patchy]

Haha I'm really happy with the work they're all doing and glad you like it.

[@63Clocks]

Looks great...well done ☮

[@RobinWyse]

Looks like it really is coming along well. I can't agree enough about insulation being so important for heat and sound. I would love to insulate my place properly but it's rented so am not able to do this.

[@cricketmcclure3458]

Awesomely beautiful - thanx for sharing, as usual . . . excited to see the next installment!!!
